Cannot connect to lw

[slimab]

I have lw pro 4.12.10 with java 5.0, it was working up until yesterday. It won't go past 1 bar. I am at work.

Windows XP Professional with sp2
Hard Drive 21 gb
memory 512 mb
T1 line
I used windows explorer 6.0

I always had a brick wall, that was never the problem.

I tried everything that was listed in the forum. What should I do next??

[wondering why]

There's a firewall somewhere, as you stated above...Because you are at work, it could mean a number of things causing you not to be able to connect...
Firstly have you asked Admin if there have been any changes to their ISP (means the company that connects you to the internet, not your browser), firewalls, modem/router...As you have no knowledge of this information, it's hard to determine what exactly the problem is...
